Friday Question of the Day – At What Point Do Dress Codes Go Overboard?

IMG_3722

I’ll admit it right away – I hate dress codes. But when I saw this sign on 18th Street in Adams Morgan I couldn’t believe it. “No timberland boots”? How can they possibly single out a brand like that? I mean why not say – no boots? I suppose I can understand places that want to maintain an air of class by banning sneakers and shorts but Timberland Boots? Am I thinking too deeply on this? Or does this seem a bit odd? I know it’s going to go there so I’ll just straight up ask it – is there a racial element to this?

I’m waiting for them to say anybody with their hair parted to the left will not be allowed in. Specifically banning Timberland boots seems that arbitrary to me.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
